John John Florence, relaxed on a lazy day, Fiji

And we’re still in a holding pattern. “We’ve spent the morning on hold to wait for the tide swing and are still waiting for more consistent conditions to start competition again,” says head judge Rich Porta. “Next call’s scheduled for 2pm with heats 4-8 on standby.” So, that’s something. And here’s something else: John John Florence, casual as y’like, dragging through a lazy day tunnel. While this looks all well and good and contestable, consistency is still absent. Hopefully, howevs, we see some jerseys pulled on today. Right click this and open in new tab – something’s gotta pop soon.
